UPDATE: Ke$ha Definitely Drank Her Own Urine…
UPDATE: ….and you knew we were going to revisit this once the visual dropped. And she is definitely getting slammed for it (Google that yourself)…..what I don’t understand is this: you telling me that Bear Grylls can sip on his own piss but Ke$ha can’t?
****************************************
…and we’ll get to watch it all happen! Ke$ha has a documentary coming soon on MTV….spotted on NZ Herald:
Ke$ha: My Crazy Beautiful Life is scheduled to premiere in the US on MTV in April and will give an insight into the eccentric singer’s habits.
The 25-year-old says viewers can expect some strange things from the series, which was filmed by her journalist brother Lagan Sebert.
“It’s my brother and his weird friend following me around for the past two-and-a-half years. We didn’t know what we were doing per se, but it’s my little brother and he’s my best friend. He’s got me wasted at 6am … He got all the things you would want to see and all the things you wouldn’t really want to see – making out with dudes, drinking my own pee, jumping out of a building, jumping out of aeroplanes, swimming with sharks …” she told BBC Radio 1.
“I was told drinking my own pee was good, I was trying to be healthy … Somebody tried to take my pee away from me and I said, ‘That is mine!’ So I snatched it up and took a chug and it was really gross so I don’t do it anymore.”
